State v. KusyNo. 20120377

Per Curiam.

[¶1] Cynthia Kusy appealed from a criminal judgment entered after a jury found her guilty of one count of luring a minor by computer and two counts of sexual assault. On appeal, she argues the State committed prosecutorial misconduct depriving her of due process of law. We affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(7); see State v. Duncan, 2011 ND 85, ¶ 24, 796 N.W.2d 672 (stating "we cannot conclude the comments resulted in an unfair trial depriving [the defendant] of due process of law").
